David Williams, 50, was found unconscious on the kitchen floor of his Summerville, South Carolina, home after his daughter was awakened by a loud noise in the early morning. First responders saw blood and initially treated the scene as a possible accidental fall, but hospital scans revealed a small-caliber bullet lodged in Williams’ head and the investigation was reclassified as a homicide.

Authorities say Williams had been in a heated argument earlier that evening with two brothers, Raymond Alfonzo Mazyck Jr. and Darrhyl Lee Mazyck; the dispute reportedly included Williams throwing gasoline on the two men. A witness later said Raymond threatened to fetch a .22-caliber gun and take care of Williams. A short time after the brothers left, the fatal shot was fired.

Darrhyl Lee Mazyck was taken into custody and charged with accessory after the fact to murder and obstructing justice for misleading investigators about his brother’s whereabouts after the shooting. A warrant was issued for Raymond Alfonzo Mazyck Jr. for murder; he remained at large as of the latest account. Does anyone have information about Raymond Mazyck Jr.’s whereabouts or about that night in Summerville?
